Steam is suffering from connectivity issues, and attempts to use various
aspects of Valve's online service return "118" errors, which say: "Unable to
connect to server. Server may be offline or you may not be connected to the
internet."
Shacknews notes a pair of twitter users are claiming to be behind the Steam
outage, but Valve has not yet officially responded to the situation. Likewise,
Polygon notes hacking group DERP is
taking
responsibility/credit for knocking EA's Origin offline with a distributed
denial of service attack, but this seems to have ended, as
EA tweets
that Origin is back online, while Steam is still having problems as of this
writing.
